A logarithmic based pole-zero vocal tract model estimation for speaker verification
In this paper we investigate the use of formant and antiformant measurements of nasal consonants for speaker verification. The features are obtained using a pole-zero vocal tract...

Use of VTL-wise models in feature-mapping framework to achieve performance of multiple-background models in speaker verification
Recently, Multiple Background Models (M-BMs) [1, 2] have been shown to be useful in speaker verification, where the M-BMs are formed based on different Vocal Tract Lengths (VTLs)...

Source-Filter-Based Single-Channel Speech Separation Using Pitch Information
—In this paper, we investigate the source–filter-based approach for single-channel speech separation. We incorporate source-driven aspects by multi-pitch estimation in the mod...
